Ikr. It's not even that bad. Other than the hair I'd totally rock that, especially if i'm rich like him, where he can literally set trends with his style if he wanted.

[–] Num10ck@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago (2 children)

was this a costume for an event? or his daily fashion? people are allowed to present as goth, this isn't the 1000th most embarrassing thing he's done.

maybe try to find a picture of him interacting with one of his offspring or wives? or a picture of him actually working as an engineer? or doing something good for those less fortunate? or participating with the greater community? or expressing empathy for a tragedy?

why even be rich if this ain't your daily style

[–] Num10ck@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

most rich people i've met look more like lebowski.. maybe its a california thing.

[–] Idrinkwatertoo@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Mr. Lebowski?

Shut up, Donny. You’re out of your element.

They had to have meant The Dude, right? Right?

[–] hemmes@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I’m the Dude. So that’s what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you’re not into the whole brevity thing.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 years ago

Honestly, it’s not that bad. The only reason that so many people have latched on to it is because of how hard Elon has tried to make it go away. It’s a textbook example of the Streisand Effect.

[–] stranger@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Streisand effect

[–] hansmeiser666@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

The Streisand effect in full swing

[–] Followupquestion@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

He’s definitely obtuse about most things.

[–] ayla@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 years ago

quite obtuse of him

Emo Musk

[–] abcd@feddit.de 7 points 2 years ago

Take my upvote and leave! 😂

[–] lowleveldata@programming.dev 66 points 2 years ago (2 children)

inb4 Elon buys Lemmy just to remove this post

[–] toxicbubble@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Deleted by Elon Musk

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 53 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Getting strong Grandma's Boy vibes here.

[–] espais@programming.dev 14 points 2 years ago

How did you see him?

[–] MorrisonMotel6@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's because you don't have robot ears

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

I'm thinking of getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.

[–] simple@lemm.ee 52 points 2 years ago

He looks like he's about to do a stand-in for episode of chris angel mindfreak

[–] PenguinJuice@kbin.social 46 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This is the third Elon Musk related post in a row. Can we agree to simmer down?

[–] WhatASave@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago

How will people know I hate him if I don't post about him constantly?

[–] VanillaGorilla@kbin.social 39 points 2 years ago (2 children)

On a scale from 1 to 10, how effective was this removal?

[–] VanillaGorilla@kbin.social 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Knew it!

[–] Retirix_YT@lemmy.ml 20 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Well we can see the photo for a start

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 34 points 2 years ago

What happens if I make this my profile picture on ~~Twitter~~ X?

[–] wabafee@lemm.ee 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

His hairline sure got liberated after.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Or he just bought more hair

[–] CoolBeance@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago

I remember my first social studies class

[–] FierroGamer@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

What's the context on this photo? Why did he try to remove it from the internet?

Edit: thanks 👍

[–] Rusty@lemmy.ca 29 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

According to his tweet he wore it to a party in 2012. And the tweet is still there, so the part about removing it from the internet is just a meme.

You sure about that? https://i.imgur.com/cfh6BiV.png lol

[–] Imgonnatrythis@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago

He worried it might one day show up on Lemmy and that he would feel judged by the community.

[–] LemmyLaLibre@feddit.ch 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It was cringe and people kept bringing it up.

[–] ShustOne@lemmy.one 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No it was for a costume party. He tweeted it and his tweet is still up. The part of him wanting it removed is made up. I don't like the guy but this gets posted constantly online and is easily shown to be false.

[–] Afrazzle@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

"___ wanted this picture deleted" is just the latest version of clickbait

[–] 2ez@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Liberty. Liberty. Lib-er-ty.

[–] DrinkMonkey@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He looks like he’s contemplating getting robot legs

[–] SpezCanLigmaBalls@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

It’s a risky operation

[–] StankFlipper@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

JP will never get robot legs. What a douche.

[–] Rayspekt@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

Did you say "download it, just in case"? Gotcha, fam.

[–] CorruptBuddha@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 years ago

Has he tried Pledge?

[–] DaveNa@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

Genius ... Genius I tell you. /s
